Capri sun earth weekend (day) projects

So I had all these Capri sun pouches from my craft night on campus this past week so I figured I'd try out some of the things i saw online that I liked. And here are some of the things I came up with: Capri sun tote Man wallet And this one I found on another blog, you can find the basic pattern (no credit card pockets) here: Inside woman wallet Outside woman wallet

Plarn tote

Warning all materials are 100% up-cycled materials!

I found a bag similar to this on Ravelry. I was having some issues following the pattern so I decided to go off on a whim of my own and this is what I cam up with! This bag is super easy. I used plastic bag yarn (aka plarn) to make the body and then I lined it with an old tote bag that i found at a thrift shop (the same one I used the handles from for the capri sun bag!)

My drink pouch purse

Well after spending time getting inspiration online, I have now assembled my first drink pouch up-cycled product. It's a purse and it only took 1 box of Capri sun (10 pouches). I made the handles from the nylon type handles that come on tote bags, I found a cheap tote bag at a thrift store and ripped the seams to use for my drink pouch purse.
